░░░░░░░░ Dana good to see ░░░░░░░░ tonight I know that ░░░░░░░░ whole conversation was taking ░░░░░░░░ when you were on ░░░░░░░░ air this afternoon on ░░░░░░░░ radio show and that ░░░░░░░░ listened to it very ░░░░░░░░ no doubt I m ░░░░░░░░ what you thought about ░░░░░░░░ whole tone of what ░░░░░░░░ discussion seemed to be ░░░░░░░░ on Martha right Thank ░░░░░░░░ for talking about this ░░░░░░░░ I thought it made ░░░░░░░░ really good TV I ░░░░░░░░ some of what was ░░░░░░░░ is going to make ░░░░░░░░ really bad policy that ░░░░░░░░ not going to protect ░░░░░░░░ kids You heard the ░░░░░░░░ Martha say that NRA ░░░░░░░░ with him on Sunday ░░░░░░░░ on behalf of members ░░░░░░░░ are two things that ░░░░░░░░ stressed to the president ░░░░░░░░ first one is that ░░░░░░░░ absolutely have to harden ░░░░░░░░ schools and we have ░░░░░░░░ protect our kids There ░░░░░░░░ millions of NRA members ░░░░░░░░ we are parents too ░░░░░░░░ have kids in school ░░░░░░░░ so this is an ░░░░░░░░ that I desperately want ░░░░░░░░ see resolved Which is ░░░░░░░░ we are pushing for ░░░░░░░░ on this as well ░░░░░░░░ second thing that was ░░░░░░░░ to the president is ░░░░░░░░ we also must protect ░░░░░░░░ rights of law abiding ░░░░░░░░ across the country right ░░░░░░░░ being punished for the ░░░░░░░░ of government Martha it ░░░░░░░░ t millions of gun ░░░░░░░░ who were missing the ░░░░░░░░ calls to the Broward ░░░░░░░░ s office And it ░░░░░░░░ t us who were ░░░░░░░░ the two FBI tips ░░░░░░░░ it s not innocent ░░░░░░░░ abiding measures all across ░░░░░░░░ country who have for ░░░░░░░░ ignored the mental health ░░░░░░░░ in this country That ░░░░░░░░ the political class And ░░░░░░░░ same political class right ░░░░░░░░ is coming and telling ░░░░░░░░ of these innocent Americans ░░░░░░░░ we re the ones ░░░░░░░░ have to pay for ░░░░░░░░ failures And we stressed ░░░░░░░░ to the president We ░░░░░░░░ look I mean you ░░░░░░░░ t restrict the rights ░░░░░░░░ law abiding Americans And ░░░░░░░░ want to be really ░░░░░░░░ what we re talking ░░░░░░░░ here We are talking ░░░░░░░░ punishing innocent Americans stripping ░░░░░░░░ them constitutional rights and ░░░░░░░░ process and making them ░░░░░░░░ for the political class ░░░░░░░░ I couldn t agree ░░░░░░░░ you Martha there needs ░░░░░░░░ be a lot more ░░░░░░░░ on the FBI and ░░░░░░░░ enforcement Unbelievable what slipped ░░░░░░░░ these people s fingers ░░░░░░░░ need to be held ░░░░░░░░ This to me is ░░░░░░░░ scariest part of what ░░░░░░░░ there It is Martha ░░░░░░░░ terms of the issue ░░░░░░░░ 21 issue why is ░░░░░░░░ is it that the ░░░░░░░░ seems fine to not ░░░░░░░░ able to get a ░░░░░░░░ until 21 but you ░░░░░░░░ not in favor of ░░░░░░░░ being able to get ░░░░░░░░ long gun until 21 ░░░░░░░░ s interesting just tonight ░░░░░░░░ came out and made ░░░░░░░░ statement they said that ░░░░░░░░ will no longer sell ░░░░░░░░ or ammunition to anyone ░░░░░░░░ the age of 21 ░░░░░░░░ That s the scary ░░░░░░░░ Because it s not ░░░░░░░░ isn t actually going ░░░░░░░░ solve the people who ░░░░░░░░ going to be affected ░░░░░░░░ this law Martha is ░░░░░░░░ the 19 year old ░░░░░░░░ banger in Chicago And ░░░░░░░░ is not the people ░░░░░░░░ are mentally been found ░░░░░░░░ unfit and dangerous to ░░░░░░░░ and others The people ░░░░░░░░ are going to be ░░░░░░░░ by this are people ░░░░░░░░ I was When I ░░░░░░░░ 20 years old and ░░░░░░░░ lived on my own ░░░░░░░░ would deprive me of ░░░░░░░░ right any method of ░░░░░░░░ myself The people that ░░░░░░░░ s going to affect ░░░░░░░░ the 19 year old ░░░░░░░░ abiding American who wants ░░░░░░░░ go and deer hunt ░░░░░░░░ the person who maybe ░░░░░░░░ to do a three ░░░░░░░░ competition with hopes of ░░░░░░░░ some day Those are ░░░░░░░░ people it s going ░░░░░░░░ affect Future servicemen and ░░░░░░░░ or current servicemen and ░░░░░░░░ when they go and ░░░░░░░░ it s going to ░░░░░░░░ their ability to protect ░░░░░░░░ at home as well ░░░░░░░░ people wait doesn t ░░░░░░░░ psychosis And once again ░░░░░░░░ re punishing law abiding ░░░░░░░░ stripping from them a ░░░░░░░░ without due process Martha ░░░░░░░░ believe there needs there ░░░░░░░░ to be enough in ░░░░░░░░ to be able to ░░░░░░░░ this young shooter in ░░░░░░░░ from getting a gun ░░░░░░░░ Martha That is not ░░░░░░░░ to his age Because ░░░░░░░░ he was on the ░░░░░░░░ of law enforcement and ░░░░░░░░ he had mental health ░░░░░░░░ He was And there ░░░░░░░░ an article that came ░░░░░░░░ in the Miami herald ░░░░░░░░ well Martha that discussed ░░░░░░░░ was talking to Florida ░░░░░░░░ I brought this up ░░░░░░░░ the town hall There ░░░░░░░░ a Florida law that ░░░░░░░░ have actually allowed law ░░░░░░░░ to arrest this individual ░░░░░░░░ charge him with a ░░░░░░░░ because he was sending ░░░░░░░░ electronic death threats to ░░░░░░░░ that s a violation ░░░░░░░░ Florida law They could ░░░░░░░░ arrested him Martha I ░░░░░░░░ to squeeze in one ░░░░░░░░ question for you because ░░░░░░░░ president talked about I ░░░░░░░░ sorry The president talked ░░░░░░░░ due process today He ░░░░░░░░ you have to take ░░░░░░░░ the firearms first and ░░░░░░░░ go to court when ░░░░░░░░ have a question about ░░░░░░░░ or not the person ░░░░░░░░ has that gun should ░░░░░░░░ have it in terms ░░░░░░░░ their mental stability Quick ░░░░░░░░ on that before we ░░░░░░░░ Well the NRA is ░░░░░░░░ to first off action ░░░░░░░░ push for action on ░░░░░░░░ children But the NRA ░░░░░░░░ also going to protect ░░░░░░░░ process for innocent Americans ░░░░░░░░ is an approach that ░░░░░░░░ are going to hold ░░░░░░░░ Due process must be ░░░░░░░░ and we stressed this ░░░░░░░░ the president at the ░░░░░░░░ on Sunday it is ░░░░░░░░ foundational principle of this ░░░░░░░░ Due process must be ░░░░░░░░ and it must be ░░░░░░░░ in terms of going ░░░░░░░░ any solutions Martha Let ░░░░░░░░ ask you School shields ░░░░░░░░ eagles program some Martha ░░░░░░░░ want people by the ░░░░░░░░ can I really tell ░░░░░░░░ check out NRA school ░░░░░░░░ com

lock ░░░░░░░░ Martha we are in ░░░░░░░░ step with the president ░░░░░░░░ protecting children We are ░░░░░░░░ total agreement with him ░░░░░░░░ that Martha I think ░░░░░░░░ is in lock step ░░░░░░░░
